ATTENTION Adoptive Parents:

You are entitled to receive a minimum of 
5 months of post adoption services in the
State of PA

How do I qualify?

Any parent who has adopted a child, at any time in the past, (both domestic and international), and currently live in the state of PA qualifies. 

What do I do to receive this service?

If you are interested in receiving services, parents must complete an intake/assessment through SWAN or Jewish Family Services to become eligible for specialized, in-home services.  Contact person and number at J.F.S. is Kathleen Swain (717-233-1681).  The process takes between 2 -3 weeks and you will be able to work with someone who has specialized training in working with adoptive families, and attachment and trauma issues.  Pam Moran is a provider for this program.
